Reflection on country and entertainment from the 1980s

There is nothing like listening to great music, regardless of the genre.  Right now, I am listening to Willie Nelson.  I miss all music like this.  I like country music, don't get me wrong, but I hate listening to it on the radio.  I am not as big a country music fan as I once was.  It seems that some of t he modern-day country artists are just way too mainstream and less country for my tastes.  I'm sure those artists have a lot of talent, but I am just not interested in listening to it.  I grew up in a time where country music was the themes from "Dukes of Hazzard" and the "Fall Guy".  I guess, being a child of the 80s, I was just carefree.  I believe that even what is considered campy back then is different from nowadays.  Here are some of the songs that I have been listening to lately:

 "Midnight Rider" by Willie Nelson


 "On the Road Again" by Willie Nelson


 "Remember When" by Allen Jackson


 "Whiskey Lullaby" by Brad Paisley and Alison Krause
